Abstract
The present invention relates to a shock absorber with multiple damping laws including a regulating body with a primary valve and a secondary valve, and an activating shaft with a plurality of channels, the activating shaft being housed in an axial orifice of a piston pin that incorporates a plurality of orifices intended to align by rotation of the activating shaft with the channels to determine a damping law and, with the second orifice in direct communication with the regulating body, wherein the regulating body includes a floating piston that has a toroidal configuration and is made of an elastic material, so that it gradually transfers a force to the primary valve depending on the pressure to which it is subjected.
